<h3>NAME</h3>
get_view_dependencies(): Analyze and list the dependencies of a given view (BETA)

<h3>TYPE</h3>
Procedure

<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
<p>
This procedure will analyze the <strong>CREATE VIEW</strong> statement of the given view, and provide
with dependency listing: the objects on which this view depends, e.g. tables or routines.
</p>
<p>
The routine does not perform deep search, and will not analyze views or routines on which 
the given view depends.
</p>
<p>
This procedure calls upon the more generic 
<a href="get_sql_dependencies.html">get_sql_dependencies()</a> routine.
</p>
<p>This code is in BETA stage.</p>

<h3>SYNOPSIS</h3>
<p>
<blockquote><pre>get_view_dependencies (
    IN p_table_schema VARCHAR(64) CHARSET utf8
,   IN p_table_name VARCHAR(64) CHARSET utf8
)
DETERMINISTIC
READS SQL DATA
</pre></blockquote>
</p>

<p>
  Input:
  <ul>
    <li><strong>p_table_schema</strong>: schema where view is located.</li>
    <li><strong>p_table_name</strong>: name of view.</li>
  </ul>
</p>


<h3>STRUCTURE</h3>
<p>
The procedure returns a result set of dependencies for this view, in same format 
as in <a href="get_sql_dependencies.html">get_sql_dependencies()</a>:
  <ul>
    <li><strong>schema_name</strong>: schema where dependency is located.</li>
    <li><strong>object_name</strong>: name of dependency object.</li>
    <li><strong>object_type</strong>: type of dependency object (e.g. <strong>'table'</strong>, <strong>'function'</strong> etc.).</li>
    <li><strong>action</strong>: type of action performed on object (e.g. <strong>'select'</strong>, <strong>'create'</strong> etc.).</li>
  </ul>
</p>

<h3>EXAMPLES</h3>
	<p>
		Analyze <strong>sakila</strong>'s <strong>actor_info</strong> view, which joins several
		tables:
	</p>
	<blockquote><pre>mysql&gt; call get_view_dependencies('sakila', 'actor_info');
+-------------+---------------+-------------+--------+
| schema_name | object_name   | object_type | action |
+-------------+---------------+-------------+--------+
| sakila      | actor         | table       | select |
| sakila      | category      | table       | select |
| sakila      | film          | table       | select |
| sakila      | film_actor    | table       | select |
| sakila      | film_category | table       | select |
+-------------+---------------+-------------+--------+
</pre></blockquote>
